What COLEGIO INTEGRAL DEL NORTE does

Colegio Integral del Norte is a private K-12 educational institution headquartered in Cartagena, Colombia, operating three physical campuses (sedes) in the El Recreo neighborhood and serving students across pre-escolar (preschool), primaria (primary) and bachillerato (high school) levels. The school markets itself on more than 20 years of operating history and on its ICFES (Prueba Saber 11) ranking as the top school in the department of Bolívar.

The institution's core product is full-cycle K-12 schooling, delivered on-campus with a multi-platform digital ecosystem layered on top: Santillana 3.0 (digital content, forums and activities), Santillana Connect (level-specific portals for pre-escolar, primaria and bachillerato), Webcolegios (academic records, grades and parent communication) and Richmond Studio (English language learning). It also offers virtual campus tours and a Virtual Education Platform for remote learning, supported by a website, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube presence for admissions marketing.

Colegio Integral del Norte generates revenue almost entirely through recurring tuition and enrollment fees, with pricing not publicly disclosed and quote-based per grade level. Its go-to-market is direct-to-consumer family enrollment managed through a dedicated admissions process (Admisiones) for the 2026 academic year, with separate contact lines per educational level. The school operates with approximately 26 employees and has no disclosed parent company, subsidiaries, or external investment.
